My feelings about all this, and my sadness for you over the decision you had to make, are impossible to express.

I look forward to your future work and catching up on some things I've missed (The Strain comes out in paperback here on June 30th). Nothing you do ever disappoints.

Perhaps when you are up around David Cronenberg's or Ridley Scott's age we can look forward to your version of the Hobbit, a remake if you will, or perhaps more accurately, the way it should have been made...
